Chicken With Vinegar (Mark Bittman), A fantastic dish! This is from Bittman’s The Best Recipes in the World Everything that I’ve made from this book has been great used boneless skinned breasts The cooking method for them wasn’t quite right, and I’ll probably do the timing differently next time Paul Bocuse’s variation is below , Delicious, moist, easy, and healthy! My cut up chicken had 2 chicken breasts coming to 2 5 lbs, so that is what I cooked: monster chicken breasts used 1 tablespoon of olive oil and 1 tablespoon of butter for browning After browning the 2 sides, I then used tongs to brown the sides and meaty end of each chicken breast Because I had monster chicken breasts, they took 25-30 minutes to cook in the oven; used an instant read thermometer to check doneness Despite having a stovetop that can professionally wok, it took over 10 minutes to reduce the vinegar and water I elected to add 2 tablespoons of butter to the sauce after it reduced, which allowed it to thicken and glisten nicely By the way, I prefer using bone-in chicken for the added taste to the meat and the sauce Made for Photo Tag
